A few days ago, Bobby Au-Yeung
fell unconscious from acute pneumonia and was rushed to the ICU for
immediate treatment. He is still currently in ICU, but his condition is
now stabled. The funny Bobby joked he's feeling comfortable in ICU and
doesn't want to change rooms. His manager, Lydia, expressed the doctor
said he can switch back to the common ward, but because there is some
problem with the arrangement, it still has not happened. She said Bobby
is used to the sounds in the ICU room and the nurses have been treating
him well, so he's feeling very comfortable. Bobby still cannot eat
anything, still on medication and an IV. Yesterday on Valentine's Day,
Bobby's wife shared a sweet photo on Weibo that she took with Bobby, she
said: "Today is Valentine's Day, wishing everyone forever happiness and
have a sweet day! I also wish my husband a speedy recovery, come back
to me soon!"

The producer of Bobby's currently filming series Love Reverse Three Lifetimes of Fate
had a meeting yesterday and decided to modify Bobby's 4 day large-scale
nightclub scenes. He asked actor Akai Lee to substitute for Bobby, then
when Bobby returns to work, they'll patch up the scenes to fit the
overall plot. However, in the next several days, the series is going on
hiatus for both studio and outdoor filming until Bobby's return. The Hippocratic Crush II
was originally the next series to start shooting in their studio, but
because the studio filming schedule had been postponed, TH2's start date
has been delayed as well.

Producer Chong expressed: "Bobby has
good people relations, many people wanted to be his substitute. Akai Lee
collaborated with him before, so he's very familiar with his body
movements and can help us out." As for the outdoor shooting in Foshan,
the crew will be shooting there from March 5th to the 20th, everything
has been scheduled. He has confidence Bobby will be able to resume work
by then. "Bobby's manager Lydia said his condition is better than
yesterday. Once he switches back to the common ward, I'll go visit him.
There is still two weeks before we start the outdoor shooting, he should
be recovered by then." Producer Chong joked once Bobby gets back to
work, they'll have to rely on Esther Kwan to control him and restrict
him from drinking.

Esther laughed, they should count on work to
control Bobby, but she believes even after his discharge from the
hospital, he'll still need lots of rest. She suggested that he get a
body check up as well. "Postponing filming is not a problem, the most
important is for him to be fine. Earlier on the set, Bobby had such a
severe chest pain that he started sweating and his face turned green. We
had to stop shooting for a moment."
